The Altamaha Riverkeeper’s new Coastkeeper program held a kick off
on the Julienton River. The event at Delta Plantation in McIntosh
County offered everyone a beautiful day and a chance to share appreciation
for the watershed where we live. The celebration also gave guests an opportunity
to meet Coastkeeper, Billie Jo Parker, as she teams up with Riverkeeper
James Holland, to protect the watershed and coast.
A slide show throughout the festivities featured the magnificent wildlife
in the Altamaha. In the presentation, ARK staff encouraged citizens
to get involved in local and state planning issues. Holland said, “ The
time is critical. We need your help to protect our water resources. We
must insist that developers obey the law and that regulators enforce it.”
Topping off the day was a bountiful spring food selection from guest’s
kitchens and gardens along with grilled specialties by JD Daniel and Capp
Cappelmann.
ARK says thank you to Piggly Wiggly, Delta Plantation, and to all the
members and quests for their support.
